There are two versions that the acoustic works with:
Version 1: This is popularly used, but requires fast strumming technique. Refer to Jamie Willetts version
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_-H880QGJ0)
Version 2: I think this works too, and is much easier to play along. This does have a different vibe to
it, so don't hate till you tried it :)
